Most influential artists not talked about much in online music discourse?
Meaning what artists had a huge influence on respected genres and critically lauded bands but aren’t talked about much today in RYM/Fantano-core circles?
I nom The Cars.
Not only were they a huge influence on 80’s new wave but you can hear their DNA in a ton of 90’s alt rock (Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins) and in 00’s indie sleaze/garage rock/post-punk revival (The Strokes and Killers especially) yet they are rarely talked about online imo.
Who are some others?
